"The driver of the Honda pointed a firearm at the victim and fired several shots. The victim sped away on East Boronda Road towards Natividad with his two young children in the backseat," Cmdr. Henry Gomez said.

"The suspect vehicle chased the victims, which continued onto southbound Natividad Road at speeds as high as 75-85 mph," Gomez said.

The father lost control in a neighborhood on Sherwood Drive near Cherry Street and his vehicle rolled onto its side at 10:19 p.m.

Luckily, the kids and driver were not injured in the crash, nor shooting.

The gang members were nowhere to be found when police arrived, and no arrests were made.

Police said the victim is not associated with gangs.

"There was no indication the victim was in any way involved with gangs and (this) appears to be a case of mistaken identity," Gomez said.
